Dr. Giorgio Paolucci, SESAME’s Scientific Director

The SESAME Synchrotron light laboratory is progressing. The accelerator reached the specified energy and its commissioning is progressing. The first two beamlines are being installed and will be ready in autumn. Two more are planned in 2018 and 2019. Members and observers of SESAME are foreseen to provide extra funding for more beamlines. SESAME represents an important opportunity for researchers in this region.
